Abstract

We report an 11-year-old male with intermittent palpitations episodes, and no other pathological findings were found. With the standard Holter electrocardiogram, there is only the option of 24 to 72 hours monitoring of the patient. A Holter Nuubo ™ Vest was placed for 33 days and a supraventricular tachycardia was found.
